After MT4, there is a rejection of MT5 due to an incomprehensible order system. This is especially true in the Strategy Tester: the MT4 report is intuitive, unlike MT5. For this reason, when it comes to publishing, for example, the report of the next Expert Advisor in the form of an html file on the forum, they either make an MT4 report or nothing.

It is not surprising when the MT5 version of the EA is tested on real ticks in the MT5 tester, but the report is laid out from MT4, where the quotes are completely different. It is possible to enter the trading style of an adviser only by MT4-statement. I suggest using the TesterReport script, which creates an html report for a single run of the MT5 tester.

Instruction:
  1. Download any MT5 Expert Advisor you are interested in (EX5 file). For example, from the Market, you can take any sold Expert Advisor for free.
  2. Run a single pass of the EA (after optimization or immediately).
  3. Run the TesterReport script in the Terminal. After that, the html-report of a single pass will open in the browser.


The report will be in the form of an understandable MT4 order system. In addition, the following data will be available:
  • Slippage values (on position opening and closing) for each position.
  • Duration of orders/positions with millisecond precision.
  • Profit/Commission/Spots in pips.
  • Trade turnover for each position.
  • Chart with/without trading costs (slippage/commission).
  • and some others.
It will also work with multicurrency MT5 advisors. The report has a spartan look: no trinkets, bright colors or other distractions.

For whom:
  • Who is interested in other people's advisors and wants to see the features of trading on the backtest using real ticks, including the multicurrency option.
  • Who is looking for an interesting advisor in the Market. It's free.
  • Who wants to compare several advisors with each other.
  • Who wants to find out the influence of a broker on the work of an adviser.
  • Who wants to discuss the next advisor in detail on the forum.
  • Who wants to, without bothering, check the correctness of his adviser in the backtest.
  • Who needs to understand the subtle features of the result of the work of the adviser: the impact of slippage and commission (can be changed in the MT5 tester).
  • Who wants to see the result of the adviser's trading with MM disabled - in pips. For example, instantly weed out averagers.
  • Who doesn't want to be tied to paid/free MT4 utilities to import a limited list of tick history. Be a hostage to their settings/bugs, stay tuned for updates.
Largely due to cross-platform libraries, every competent developer has a version of his advisor for both platforms: MT4/5. Modern Expert Advisors only for MT4 are a rarity.

Take full advantage of the hidden power of the MT5 tester!
